Swat team raids Silver Plume home (marijuana NOT found) [CO]

Swat team raids Silver Plume home


By Adrienne Anderson

In early November, an armed Clear Creek County sheriff’s tactical team raided a Silver Plume house looking for a suspected marijuana farm. The four-hour raid that took place at midday on Main Street in Silver Plume turned up no marijuana and a handful of drug paraphernalia.
The raid was sparked after a two-month investigation by sheriff’s Detective Jim Woolf into 33-year-old resident Todd Maxwell.
The investigation began in mid-September when a sheriff’s deputy went to Maxwell’s house to serve civil papers and observed what he described as strange and bizarre behavior from Maxwell.
Instead of coming to the door, the deputy said, Maxwell “crawled” out a window and “slithered” across the roof to retrieve the papers.
A few days later, a Gilpin County deputy reported that, during a routine traffic stop, Maxwell was found with 5.9 ounces of marijuana.
Over the next two months, Woolf used a search warrant to pull Xcel records on the house to determine if there was excessive usage or variance in electricity. Woolf said he observed a bright light emanating from the basement of the garage that he concluded was consistent with lights used to grow marijuana. The electric bills also showed a two to four times higher electric bill compared to four nearby homes.
Woolf obtained a search warrant Nov. 1, and the house was raided the following day.
Police found $1,400 in cash, eight unidentified pills, various smoking pipes, books and manuals on how to grow marijuana, and 25 to 30 plastic pots consistent with those used to grow marijuana, the report said. No marijuana was found.
Maxwell was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, a class 2 petty offense, which carries a maximum fine of $100. Maxwell appears in court Jan. 8.

Whoa whoa whoa wait - 6 ounces? What the fuck? How did they not legally assrape him for that?

I mean kickass for him. I love to see the feds lose, but shit...

cuz they didn't want him to panic and clean up the house. Better to let him think it was no big deal and let him go, then gather evidence of what he was doing to get all of that- bigger charge.

You can always indict later, but perhaps they felt they didn't (or tried and couldn't) get a warrant for his house.

Whats really wrong with this is how he compared the electricity bill to four other houses in the area. He needed a warrant for the one, how did he get one for the others with no probable cause or any reason for that matter? Also it sounds like they were just snooping around looking in windows and stuff, so stupid. You think that was a routine traffic stop too? lol.... damn

you dont need a warrant to get access to electricity usage. any joe blow can walk up to the power company and ask for them.

I don't know about smart. If you've got a cop knocking at your door and you CLIMB OUT A WINDOW and onto your roof to meet him and not expect NOT to look suspicious to the cop.. then you're an idiot actually :wink:

God forbid... bizarre behavior?!  That damn satan weed must have gotten another.  Good thing that bizarre behavior is illegal!

A few days later, a Gilpin County deputy reported that, during a routine traffic stop, Maxwell was found with 5.9 ounces of marijuana.




So they caught him with a little over a quarter pound and just let him go?

Quote:

Over the next two months, Woolf used a search warrant to pull Xcel records on the house to determine if there was excessive usage or variance in electricity.




Wonder what the search warrant was based upon?  Strange behavior and a traffic stop?

Quote:

Woolf said he observed a bright light emanating from the basement of the garage that he concluded was consistent with lights used to grow marijuana.




As opposed to light consistent with lights used to light a room...  :rolleyes:

Quote:

The electric bills also showed a two to four times higher electric bill compared to four nearby homes.




So now it is illegal to use too much electricity.  Great.  Remind me not to leave lights (as apparently that is also illegal) or buy new appliances (check out my new big screen TV!) that might get me in trouble.

Police found $1,400 in cash, eight unidentified pills, various smoking pipes, books and manuals on how to grow marijuana, and 25 to 30 plastic pots consistent with those used to grow marijuana, the report said. No marijuana was found.




Police found $1,400 in cash which is not illegal.
Police found eight pills, could be asprin for all we know.
Police found para... busted!
Police found 25 to 30 plastic pots consistent with those used to grow any plant.
Police found books and manuals on how to grow marijuana.  Books are now illegal too, I guess.

Quote:

Maxwell was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, a class 2 petty offense, which carries a maximum fine of $100. Maxwell appears in court Jan. 8.




Great use of our tax money. I wonder how long the investigation took, how much money it cost, and how many violent crimes occurred while the police were wasting time.

> then you're an idiot actually :wink:

Smart enough to not get busted for growing.
